Happy Friday/ New Release.....

Happy Friday and I hope this e-mail finds you well. This is my new release "Soul". This piece was inspired by the many great live concerts I've experienced through out the years and the magic I witnessed coming from the stage! From artist such as Rashaan Patterson, Macy Gray, Meshell Ndegeocello, Nikka Costa, Counting Crows and recently Dionne Farris. Music inspires much of my art and like art it can tell stories that you can relate to as well as bring insight to your life. More info about this piece can be found on my site under "New Release."

Come to Austinsart.com for your art needs. Get something for yourself or for someone special. For the holiday season I'm offering free ground shipping before Dec. 17th on all U.S. orders.

Welcome

From time to time I get e-mails that turn out to be great discussions and figured this way they can be shared with our whole community! So if you have a comment about my work or have any questions about any of my work please post it here. Here I plan to post topic to hear what you all think as well. I really feel it's important to bridge the gap between artist and patron. I'm excited to see what's come from this! J

About the Artist

I am a visual artist from Vallejo CA. I’ve been creating art ever since I can remember. I first realized it was my calling when I was about the age of three and drew a mural on the kitchen wall in crayon. My mother walked by, saw my most recent work and to my surprise, I didn’t get in trouble. I’ve been creating art ever since.

Early on, my fascination with people has greatly influenced my art. I noticed that facial expressions as well as body language said just as much if not more than words. I made it my mission to include those complex emotions and expressions in my paintings.

In 1993 I went into the U.S Air Force and served for four years while stationed at Offutt Air Force Base in Omaha NE. During my time there I did several fine art shows, free-lance artwork for the U.S Air Force as well as for companies in Omaha. After being refused a transfer to a base closer to home, I decided not to re-enlist but to return home to dedicate more time to family and art.

I’m currently working on a new body of work and loving that fact that I have the Bay Area as my backdrop. My artwork has been featured in Art Business News and has been shown throughout the U.S. including Los Angeles, Philadelphia, Chicago and New York.
